Can at home. Taking it easy tonight with just a few light brews. Cloudy gold and frothy head. Nose is floral and some sewer malting. Tatses of yeast, candy, floral, hay, oyster crackers. Sweet finish. Smooth.

Canned 6/1/22, drunk 6/11/22. Clear brass. Large, well-retained, white head. Fruity as all hell for a lager, with floral notes and light cracker and biscuit. Mineral with no alcohol or flaw. In the mouth it's malty, well-attenuated with big floral and fruity notes. Nothing against fruity lagers, but this is so much flower and fruit with a strong biscuit malt. Dry, too much floral character. Feels like a rare miss. Needs more malt texture and sweetness. Way too much floral character.

Pours clear gold into a shaker. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Cracked malt and clean earth aromas. Soft and creamy with sweet caramel and hay upfront turning to dry sourdough and pepper in the lasting finish. Turns more fruity as it warms.
